Interesting wines on supermarket shelves

Whilst many people tend to think of supermarket wines as cheap and nasty, this is not particularly true. The biggest two supermarkets have high end operations and one of them has a chain of wine stores at which you can buy some of the most expensive wines here in Hong Kong. I have a special spot for Marks and Spencer, from which I had bought many interesting wines that have broaden my horizons. I just discovered another smaller chain, which sells products from the Tesco group in the UK. They too have some very interesting wines. Pignoletto is an obscure Italian grape which I remember meeting at the Wine Fair, but I cannot remember if I had tasted it in a sparkling wine there. Here it is on the shelves in Hong Kong. There is also this white wine which contains Carmenere in its cepage! Now that's a real novelty.
